Abstract

The focus of the study is set on two earliest surviving Greek charters in the archive of the monastery of Hilandar on Mount Athos, a chrysobull and a sigillion of emperor Alexios III Angelos, which are also the two most important documents for the founding of the Serbian monastery. It discusses the genesis of their texts, identifies their parts which might have been borrowed from Saint Sava’s letters of request to emperor Alexios, as well as the reception of the charters in the work of two 13th-century Serbian writers, Domentijan and Teodosije.
